| Lyrics |

I am walking, burning, burning,

Love has stained my heart with yearning,

Neither crazy nor discerning

Come, see, what love has done to me

Chorus:

Gel gör beni beni aşk neyledi

Derde giriftar eyledi

(Come, see, what love has done to me.)

One day like the winds I’m blowing,

One day like the roads I’m going,

One day like the floods I’m flowing

Come see, come see, what love has done to me

Chorus

Take my hand and keep me staying

Take me else, to You conveying,

No more tears, for laughs I’m praying

Come see, come see, what love has done to me

Chorus

Walking round with Majnun’s madness,

Seeing Her in dreams my gladness,

Waking up again in sadness

Come see, come see, what love has done to me

Chorus

I am Yunus, poor and stricken,

From my exile my steps quicken,

Head to toe I hurt and sicken

Come see, come see, what love has done to me

Chorus

Ben yürürüm yane yane

Aşk boyadı beni kane

Ne akilem ne divane

Gel gör beni aşk neyledi

Derde giriftar eyledi

Chorus
